2012 Kansas City Royals Repository Thread
2012 Slogan: Our Time
A better, more accurate 2012 Slogan: It is Finally Next Year (from Great Expectations) An alternative slogan if you don't like that one: Someone has to win this crappy division (from alnorth) With the beginning of a new year, it is time for the 2012 version of the Royals Repository Thread. We've got Hosmer, we've got a 2011-dominating Gordon, we've got Moose, we've got hopefully a killer bullpen, we've got a stereotypical slow slugging DH, we've got easily one of the best defensive shortstops in the AL, we've got a promising catcher in Salvador Perez. Hell, we've got offense and promising prospects galore. We do not have starting pitching. Oh yeah, we've also got this: Get ready for, (as of January 2012 anyway), one of the most confusing puzzles of a baseball season in recent Royals history. Will they suck? Maybe, I don't know. Will we be given a year of 0.500 baseball? Possibly, I don't know. Will they win the division and go to the playoffs for the first time in 27 years? For the first time in a long time, it could happen, I don't know. 92 losses, 92 wins, or anything in between would not surprise a lot of us. Everything goes here except Gameday threads and really big news. If a giant story breaks, the Royals achieve some awesome milestone, or we sign/lose a highly significant player/coach/mascot/whatever, then it might also deserve its own thread. This being Chiefs Planet, please do not clutter the board with new threads about trivial Royals news or you will only annoy those who come here for just Chiefs football. If you aren't sure and its not a Gameday thread, it goes here. What sort of stuff often goes here? SPchief explained it well, so I'll just copy that: Quote:

If I could I'd never leave the house. I'm sorry I hurt your feelings because I think internet bets are dumb.

I don't get the "meltdowns less circle jerk"
Any positive news and that asshole tries to put a damper on it. Hell YOU started him his own thread, didn't you fever? Why? Posted via Mobile Device |

Anger issues, the internet, and alcohol make an interesting combination.

Kind of a public service and it was fun at the time. He can be annoying yes but I just ignore him. I realize that's impossible for many internet users.

If I didn't I wouldn't have brought them up heh. Really people should just learn to ignore things they aren't interested in. No one ever seems to realize bitching about O's posts or my threads or anything else ever makes those things stop.

Glass spent plenty of money. The problem is that DM doesn't know how to maximize value. For every $1 he spends wisely, he literally lights $5 on fire, and we're left to justify his stupidity by noting the beauty of the flames. |

As it turns out the thread didn't work anyway... he's still posts here just as much. Hey it was an effort anyway.

Good point. I was starting to lessen my rage to it this afternoon, but you're probably right: it's because I've gone from anger to acceptance on the chart. |
